stack o' stars

busy week this week, but my poor shop has been neglected and nothing new has managed to make it there. stuff at the farm is beginning to fly - the kitchen has been completely opened up and is being plastered as i type. next week the underfloor heating then the floor screed goes down (or is it the other way round? eek!) then the kitchen units go together (really looking forward to that!) and the templaters come in to sort out the wood worktops. then the tiles will be laid, weeeeee! it's getting to the stage where everything is exciting now...gotta think about paint colours, but in my heart of hearts i know i'll go white everywhere - i want to add the colour drama with the accessories - white rooms may bore some people but to me they're relaxing and inspiring at the same time!anyway, i have found little slices of time here and there to make some christmas stars in lots of colours, traditional and contemporary, for a little stall a friend is having in a couple of weeks.

The stars are great. You sound busy with the building works. I would definately have the white walls. Although we painted our walls neutral colours I still wish we had gone for white, its so great to add bold colour with accessiries too.
